Guest Designer for CHCC Extra.

I felt very honoured when Hazel at Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra asked me to be her Guest Designer for November. I have had a hard time keeping it under my hat and not spoiling the surprise.The challenge is sponsored by Bugaboo stamps which for me was an added bonus as I love using their digi's. Hazel allowed me to select 4 images from their vast range and these are the first two cards that I have made.It is always Anything goes as long as it is Christmas so do please hop on over and link up your cards. You will be in with a chance to win $21 of Bugaboo digital stamps if you do.I will be back later in the month to showcase the last two cards that I have made.1st up though today is this easel card made using Fancy Sunbonnet - Christmas Stuff.

I have coloured the image using Promarkers and Pearlescent chalks.

Added glossy accents to the baubles and berries.

Both digi papers are from Bearly Mine's Christmas Fun and Christmas Sparkle packs.

I have used the Xcut square Parenthesis die but elongated to fit the card and image.

The hard board baubles are by Tando Creative which I have coloured in with a Promarker pen ,

added silver peel offs by Woodware and then covered in Glossy accents.

finally I threaded black embroidery thread through the loops and added to the card using

Hi Mrs A......Both cards are totally stunning and l like those baubles especially with them being mounted, gorgeous images, and layouts and congrats on your Dgt you have done yourself and Hazel proud xx

Hi Mrs A,thank you for leaving a lovely comment on my blog - I have often heard you mentioned in the playground! Congrats for you GDT - wow! two fabulous cards. My favourite is the reindeers - so cute! xx

Valery, I was so pleased to see your name as Guest DT at Hazel's. Perfect choice she's made IMHO. Loved both your cards there, and enjoying 'em again over here. Sunbonnet Sue is just so dainty & girly, but I really had to smile at the goofy reindeer. The expressions are so funny and love the extra touches you did with the popped up guy & his hoof, but the google eyes of the one peeking over the window sill is hilarious. Great image & you did it wonderfully with all the other elements on your cute card. TFS & Hugs
